A few years ago I was given a FRIENDS themed tray in a swap. I never used it often because I didn't want it to get scratched! But that meant that I had an awesome tray that was hidden away for most of the year.

The addition of a few hooks was all it needed and now I have a lovely jewelry holder which I get to look at every single day!!

From the moment it first aired Leverage quickly became one of my favorite shows. It's one of the few shows I actually buy in itunes since i'm not sure that it will EVER air in Australia!

It doesn't seem to have picked up a huge following in the crafting community although there has been some mild chatter about a Craftster swap. That said, I still have no idea what to craft! I think it might be time for a marathon - I know that there's some amazing moments that need to be immortalized through I can't seem to think of any.

For myself, I plan on finishing the Gryffindor scarf i'm crocheting to wear to the midnight screening of The Deathly Hallows.

In progress shot of scarf.

Does anyone know how I can stop picking up stitches all the time? It's a problem I have every time I make a scarf and other than counting stitches each row (which I do NOT want to do!) i'm not sure how to stop. I'm seriously considering dropping by an old ladies crochet group at church one day and begging them for help!
